Pinning Exponential Synchronization of Nonlinearly Coupled Neural Networks with Mixed Delays via Intermittent Control

摘要

This paper is concerned with the exponential synchronization problem of nonlinearly coupled neural networks with mixed delays. By employing the intermittent control strategy, several appropriate linear and adaptive pinning controllers are designed in each control period. With the help of a new differential inequality, some conditions are proposed to guarantee that the coupled networks can realize pinning synchronization exponentially. The minimum number of pinned nodes is determined by using high-degree pinning scheme. Two numerical examples are provided finally to demonstrate the effectiveness of the theoretical results.
